    I wanted to love this system, but it never performed as well as I expected. Even going through the setup process several times I was never able to get the sound where I wanted it. The system is feature rich, but we encountered some crackling sounds and connectivity issues. I’m giving it 4 stars because I think the system is good, it just wasn’t right our TV (LG) and room configuration.

    I teetered between 4 and 5 stars on this. I am quite satisfied with the sound in the end. I was only slightly disappointed with the fact that there is no calibration for individual room dynamics, however, maybe that allows for an easier setup. Bass is outstanding.

    Excellent. So much easier to set up and better sound than my Sonos .less expensive than Sonos and Bose. It is now ranked as the number 1 brand by most consumer channels!

    The Nakamichi 7.2.4 (1000 watt) is everything the company advertises it to be. This system certainly gives me the best bang for the buck. Great surround that captures all of the highs and lows with plenty of adjustments available for personalizing.

    BLEW ME AWAY, GET IT!

    Heard many good things about this not so well-known brand. Decided to make the jump after my brother who bought the 9.2 eARC kept bugging me to get one of my own. I got the 7.2 with the 8” subs instead since I have a smaller living room but still want the dual subs configuration. Super glad to be an owner of this fabulous surround sound system. I could feel my seats vibrating during many scenes of Godzilla vs Kong, watching it with this system truly made me feel like I was in a theater. Why did I not get this earlier?! All my previous systems pales in comparison. PURE BLISS listening to my favorite classic tunes of Bob Marley. The tiniest details of the different instruments, the highs, the lows, the words, can all be clearly heard. I love the remote too, everything can be tuned and the EQ buttons are super convenient. Also, shoutout to the great service! I had some questions while setting it up with my LG OLED TV and blu-ray player and within minutes of speaking with a Nak ninja, I had the perfect setup. Cant wait to watch more content with it!

    My quest for the PERFECT sound system ends here

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I am glad that I auditioned and evaluated almost all soundbars (and HTiBs) on the market beforehand; as it helped me understand my requirements clearly. This is my first ever soundbar purchase so initially I wasn't even sure what all I need. But as I went through the competitor brands (that often have glaring reviews on the internet) I realized that most were either paid or simply not my use-case. I have a fairly large living room and a 75-inch Sony TV. I was looking for a sound system that could replicate a theatrical experience and suffice my various needs viz. TV series off Netflix/Disney, Hulu etc. to movies to streaming music from phone. I wanted an immersive sound stage and be enveloped in lifelike sound throughout my room. But whichever brand I auditioned had something missing. Where one system would sound amazing for movies, it would lack in music; or vice versa. In rare cases where I found a brand/model that ticked all boxes, the bass would be sub-optimal. I even considered HTiBs but they did not have enough flexibility or ports to accommodate all my devices. Enter Nakamichi Shockwafe. There was no way I could audition this since it is not available in my country of residence. So I went deeper into research, reading everything that I found, understanding all about Dolby and DTS formats, speaker placement, eARC et al. Kudos to Nakamichi for providing detailed guides, videos and articles that took a long while to digest but ultimately helped immensely. Initially I (and more than me, my wife) were skeptical in buying something without seeing or hearing it in flesh. But the feature set and all-positive owner experiences looked convincing and trustworthy. I did an A/B comparison of feature set and found Shockwafe trumping all boxes consistently. It is a future proof package that punches way above its weight (while delivering deep bass way below the competition!). It has been over two months since my unit was delivered and I couldnt be happier. It looks beautiful and complements my room setup. It effotlessly handles EVERYTHING that I throw and leaves plenty of space to surprise me daily. I play at 50% volume and even then I find it loud and clear enough. Bass is truly the standout feature of this set. With the proper tracks and movies, you will actually feel the walls shaking and the floor rumbling. It is the kind of bass that growls in your stomach and puts you right in the middle of the action. I am really glad I chose the dual subwoofer model because it evens out the bass punch throughout the room. Even at higher volumes, the bass doesnt disperse and punches hard and strong. My entire listening experience is elevated to hitherto unknown realms. I do not feel the need to go to the cinema anymore. I will gladly buy it again (although it will be the 9.2.4 model next time!) and recommend it without an iota of doubt to anyone considering.

    Huge on Sound. Can't be beaten at its price point

    Wanted a 9.2 eARC, but my significant other just wasn't having any of that. So I bought the 7.2 instead. I really needed the eARC feature as I game on a PS5, and wanted to enjoy 4K120 with the best sound quality. I knew I was getting 2 subs, but I wasn't prepared for how much difference it made vs my previous bar with a single sub. With both subs working together, the bass on the 7.2 eARC is tangible and powerful. You can feel the bass! Rewatching 12 Strong was a treat - I could hear a 360 soundfield with ambient details I've never noticed before. I'm sure no other soundbar can outperform the bass of the 7.2 or 9.2 eARC. Especially at its price point. Don't sleep on this one!

    Excellent sound quality in all formats. Particularly strong as a home theater, the clarity of the sound bar is outstanding and the two subs thunder with little to no booming. The satellites are clear and the setup flexible. The remote affords controls and customization not typically found on sound bars. Very happy with my purchase.
